– A little rain never hurt anyone. –

On Sunday, May 3rd, Springhouse Education and Consulting Services (Exton, PA) launched their 1st Annual Philly TechFest. Co-sponsoring the event was Microsoft Learning and the Get on the Bus certification tour, an 11-day road trip across America touting the values of Certification and training!

During Day 1, MS Learning presented on The Value of Certification, Windows Server 2008 R2 and introduced their “Are You Certifiable?” Winner, Christopher Kusek. Christopher is joining the bus tour as it makes it’s way from the East Coast to the West Coast over the next week. You can follow Chrisopher’s blog and read about his experiences and travels over on his blog and follow him on Twitter @cxi.
Joey Snow, IT Pro Evangelist, gave the folks in attendance their closest look yet at Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. From initial feedback many of the guests were excited to learn about Windows 7! One comment left on the Born to Learn blog by an attendee:
Great presentations about how the exams are developed, and about Windows 7 and Windows 2008 R2.
I encourage you to continue following the Get on the Bus tour and Born to Learn blog and you can also follow them on Twitter @MSLearning
We’ll post again about Day 2!
